about

Feeling stuck and antsy in the sweltering heat of Central Florida while dreaming of leaving and planning his first Western US tour, Julien Kozak wrote new single "Home Is Gone", his first release since his Debut EP in 2016. With the steady, chugging rhythm of a steam locomotive, “Home Is Gone” encapsulates a restless longing for big mountains and fresh adventure on the open roads of the Western US.

lyrics

i woke up early this morning
for the first time in a year
i had forgotten what it felt like
and it felt right
to live life lettin' go of fear
so i have made my decision
gonna pack my bags and go
and i can't help that i'm a dreamer
and i need ya
but i also need the open road
oh
i see my spirit dancin' in the wind
i have my freedom back again

i don't know where on earth i'm goin'
but it feels like home
the slight uncertainty reminds me
there's no place i belong
so to the mountains
to the rivers and the streams
that's where i'll be
chasin' songs
'cause a gypsy soul's home is gone

there must be something wrong with me
i cannot focus or sit still
i've done too much damage watchin' my life
passing me by
with elbows on the window sill
the embers smouldered in the darkness
but now they're burnin' in my blood
this is a curse this is a blessin'
and i'm guessin'
that this world will never ever be enough

no
selfish wants become needs i can't deny
i have to feed my appetite

i don't know where on earth i'm goin'
but it feels like home
the slight uncertainty reminds me
there's no place i belong
so to the mountains
to the rivers and the streams
that's where i'll be
chasin' songs
'cause a gypsy soul's home is gone
and this gypsy soul's home is gone
